TAKING MY GERMAN FRIENDS TO IRAN

After 4 years, I returned to Iran in the summer of 2014. This time however, I took three of my German friends with me. For two weeks, we traveled the country and I very much acted as their tour guide. Organizing, translating, explaining, leading – it was a truly amazing experience and honor to share my country with some of my dearest friends.

In addition to that, the trip was very special as we met ±25 like-minded people throughout our entire journey – people our age who we all met through Instagram. Through this simple picture-sharing app, we were able to build some strong connections and friendships. You can read this interview on Iran Wire which describes some of the experiences we made.
